[...] In the attached PDF I see that there is sometimes a small white gap between a note line and the base of the triangle. I consider this bad. IMHO, both the top and base of the triangle should slightly overlap with the note lines (this is, they should extend to the vertical center of a note line) to avoid it.
Hi Max - Can you send out the first attachment we did where the bases of the triangles do, in fact, touch the stafflines? Werner - We tried exactly that and the result was optically that notes in a staffspace (and that therefore connect to an adjacent staffline) appear a bit larger than notes on a staffline (that therefore do not connect to an adjacent staffline). The gap was an attempt to neutralize that optical effect, but perhaps it doesn't quite work. What other strategies are there? -- Trevor Bača address@hidden
